Check host or others connections oriented test cannot choose the routing domain and more importantly the source address.

ie

ssh -b ping -I nc -s

    Monit doesn't need to select the source IP for remote host check - the source IP selection is driven by the routing table. If there are multiple interfaces to the same network, it is usually managed by existing specialized IP multipathing or trunk framework with corresponding fault monitoring and transparent failover. The source IP selection makes sense only if the goal is to verify each physical network interface health - the network interface monitoring will be added in the future along with throughput monitoring and probably some health test.
